Xanax

Xanax absolutely wipes me out the following day. I assume its effect should last around eight hours. For me, it seems to go on and on the next morning. Has anyone else had this problem?

PS: I take it only occasionally to help me sleep.

How much are you taking, DaveCholly?

Usually, it's the "too much at one time" that causes the lingering
symptoms of the drugged feeling. You need always to stay well hydrated when you're taking medical prescriptions.

Any medication can cause the symptoms you're describing. Just make
sure to keep the dosage as low as possible to avoid side effects, and
drink lots and lots of purified or distilled water. The acidic residue of
prescription drugs can cause all kinds of symptoms, from drowsiness to
virtually inability to function period.

You've got to keep the water flowing to remove toxins.

Each tablet is scored three times, making four pieces. I've tried one and two pieces and they both destroy me. "[V]irtually inability to function period." That about sums it up. Maybe I'll get out the razor blade and make it half of one piece.

Either that, Davec, or perhaps taking Xanax every other day so that your body has time to metabolize all of the last dose. Karen is really right about it, however; you need to confer with your doctor about what you need to do. Explain to him about the inability to function at 100%. He'll know and will help you, too.

Good to know you're getting along better now.
